A recent study has found that the positive health effects of COVID-19 vaccines can last up to a year, reducing the risk of heart failure by up to 55% and blood clots by up to 78%. The study, which looked at over 20 million people in Europe – half vaccinated and half not – included vaccines from Moderna, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, and Johnson & Johnson.
The research revealed that the risk of complications from the virus infection is higher than from vaccination. Within a month after receiving the vaccine, the risk of blood clots in veins was reduced by 78%, while the risk of blood clots in arteries decreased by 47% and the risk of heart failure by 55%.
Furthermore, the study showed that COVID-19 vaccines can also reduce the likelihood of long-term health issues. This emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated to protect not only oneself but also others in the community.
In light of these findings, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has announced that adults over 65 are eligible for an additional updated COVID-19 vaccine. This recommendation underscores the significance of staying up to date with vaccination efforts to continue safeguarding public health.
Overall, the study provides valuable insights into the benefits of COVID-19 vaccines in preventing serious health complications and reducing the overall impact of the virus. It serves as a reminder of the importance of vaccination in the ongoing fight against the pandemic.
